Love is in the air in the latest story featuring the charming friendship of Bear and Spider -- and a special someone. Perfect for fans of Peter Brown and Greg Pizzoli! Bear is excited for his new teapot to arrive. When the doorbell rings, Bear finds something unexpected -- a new delivery person, Panda, who happens to be very charming. Bear does the only thing he can think of -- he orders another teapot so he can see Panda again. But he' s too flustered to talk to her . . . so he orders another teapot. And another. Spider encourages Bear to invite Panda to tea, but one day, a new delivery person arrives at the door. Seeing how devastated his friend is, Spider sets out on a journey to find Panda and help his friend find the courage to be himself. The fantastic duo from Bear' s Scare and Bear Out There is back in another sweet friendship story that' s perfect for Valentine' s Day. Don' t miss these other books in the Bear and Spider series!
